Television service? #218

Open vmarks opened 1 year ago

vmarks commented 1 year ago

Hi,

Does this support the television service?

I would like to set inputs, volume up/down/mute and power on/off for a television with this project.

hassbian-ABC commented 1 year ago

yes

PimV5755 commented 1 year ago

Pay attention that you cannot control this accessory from the Home app or using Siri. Other apps wil work. Apple does not allow uncertified (OpenSource HAP) accessories to audio and video. (Shame)

vmarks commented 1 year ago

That is incorrect.

Apple allows ravensystems/HAA ir blasters to control television input and volume for example in home and the control Center remote control widget.

That would be great. I tried to make a "speaker" accessory to control the volume of an amplifier/speaker. The accessory paired fine but in the Home-app there came the message that it is not supported. Do you have made it working?

Here ther is also the same problem mentioned (few years ago) https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge/issues/1326

vmarks commented 1 year ago

I have an IR blaster running ravensystems/haa that controls inputs and volume of a samsung TV.

Separately, I have homebridge running an onkyo receiver plugin which appears to homekit like a TV for inputs, and uses a fan speed or lamp dimmer (config option) to add a volume slider to homekit. Without that, you have to open control center, tap on remote, and use the volume buttons to control the volume of the receiver or TV.

but… it works.

Yes, through Homebridge it works. However, I prefer the native setup so that I can use Siri. BTW I made a HomeKit “gateway” to control my Denon AVR

I agree, I prefer to not use homebridge. But the point I was making was that open source HAP works with volume.

I would like to replicate your Denon control. Are you able to share how you did it? I was thinking of using ravensystem/haa and mapping the TV configuration to the AVR urls that Denon uses.

Sure. To make it work with Siri I made it a Lightbulb and limited the control URL to on/off and volume. I did make the double direction work. So if you use the remote or the volume knob, and the on/off it does update HomeKit (as it should) From that you can add more if you go for your solution. I will post an archive with th sample when I am home.

@hassbian-ABC could you share the code for tv remote(im interested in HomeKit part)? im trying to make it and if you already done it it'd be easier for me
